Revenge of The Furtive Billionaire Heir 111. The unimaginable.
When I tell Coraline about my new friends, she’s ecstatic.“It’s really good you have people to depend on while you're at school, Jace,” she tells me while we pore through the analytical reports from engineering division of the factory and make the supply inventory for next month, “I was a bit worried about you having no one at school to even talk with sometimes, and now you have three people who are even willing to stand up to a bully for you.”“Yeah, it feels good to have that kind of support, I guess,” I reply, “I have to admit, it might take some getting used to. A lot to be honest. Half the time I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop.”“Sometimes, I really want to go and punch everyone who made you feel so damned alone,” Coraline mutters darkly, “ever since you were only a kid.” She tilts her head at me, “you told me you didn’t have friends in school either, right?”“I was never an interesting child, to begin with,” I shrug, “I didn’t have any special talent, you know? I was p
Revenge of The Furtive Billionaire Heir 112. Stalker.
“So, what’s your deal?” Malic asks me a few days later as we all sit for lunch. It was quickly becoming our tradition, being seated at the same table we used the first day if we could, or using another in case our table is occupied, and partaking in the meal together. We had not transgressed to the stage in our friendship where we would meet one another after or before school hours, it’s still lunch and classes. But as I could tell, everyone was warming up to each other, laughing and joking, and talking about things that would be considered personal.I am excited for our relationship to grow, of course, so much so that at times I feel like a giddy child who had been led into a candy store. I do hope that no one can actually see it on my face, because that would be really embarrassing.“What do you mean what my deal is?” I question him back. Louise and Annabelle are discussing something philosophical on the other side of the desk, and today, Malic has decided to sit next to me.He tilt
Revenge of The Furtive Billionaire Heir 113. Devil?
I needed to find the bully’s name, so I ask around the campus.Turns out his name is Talon. Talon Moss. I don’t know if it’s his real name, but that’s what he introduces himself to anyone he takes a liking to. And to nobody’s surprise, all of them are the rich kids of King’s College. According to the rumors surrounding his characters, he's even more classist and obnoxious than Stone is, but less inclined to take leadership when harassing those that he deems lesser. I’m not the only one who is his target, a lot of other scholarship kids had been mistreated by him as well.But he does not stalk them as he does me.I do not know why he is so obsessed with me. Half the time I find myself walking through the campus, I feel his eyes on me. Sometimes it’s just phantom, but most of the time, I see him turning his burning gaze away. When I turn my own head fast enough to catch his eyes, I glimpse the sheer hatred in there.Was it because I got Stone expelled? As far as I remembered, Stone and
Revenge of The Furtive Billionaire Heir 114. Wallet.
Everything is swell, except for one fact.I had forgotten my wallet.Of all the stupid things in the world, forgetting my wallet on this specific day was not on my agenda. Everything monetary is in my wallet, including the cards for the subway passes. I had no other money on my person because I had not even bought lunch today.Instead, I cooked in the morning, attempting to master the talent.That’s when it dawns on me, that I’ve probably left my wallet on the kitchen counter.I can’t help but slap a hand on my face with a groan. I don’t know what to do now. My friends were all gone, so I could not borrow some money from them.What am I supposed to do now? It’s quite a dilemma.I won’t really risk trying to sneak in a bus, and there’s no way any driver would let me ride free. I had the worse luck on the best days, so there’s no way I’m going to risk being humiliated by a bus driver on top of it all.So, that leaves one logical course of action to follow.I sigh and give Laurent a call
Revenge of The Furtive Billionaire Heir 115. My Bullies
On one hand, I could stay and confront him about this stalking of his. But there’s no one around to help me in case Talon tries to do something drastic, and while I don’t believe that he would try to kill me or anything, I really don’t want to get in a fight on campus grounds yet again.And so ,I did the best thing I could think of. I turn and start to walk away.I know that I should keep to the outer section of the campus because Gerald would be driving by the road to pick me up, and there are people present in case Talon attempts something. I try to make myself look inconspicuous enough because I don’t want anyone to think I’m acting suspiciously. Previous experience had shown that this will not work in my favor. And so, I walked, trying my hardest to be nonchalant, putting a spring in my step and shoving my hands in my pockets, the very essence of a chill dude going home after a long day at the university.I look over my shoulder after walking a couple of yards, and sure enough, I
Revenge of The Furtive Billionaire Heir 116. One and only.
The man starts at me, his fist raised in a punch.If it had been before his expulsion, I would’ve thought that whatever Stone was about to do to me would knock me out flat on my ass. But thanks to Adrenaline Rush, I could now see how bad his form was. Before, what he lacked in technique, he made for with strength. He was unfairly tall and had the muscle mass to suit his height. When confronted with that, anyone my size would cower.But now I am different. Now, I know how to fight.So I use his lack of balance to my advantage and target the opposite of side he was leaning towards. Instead of a punch, I swerved to the side and kicked him, right above his hips with speed behind my move. With a surprised yell, he had been shoved away from his intended path, barely regaining his balance.He whips towards me with surprise evident on his features, and I shrug.“I learned a thing or two since we last met,” I told him, “you still got time to turn and leave me alone, and I won’t kick your ass i
Revenge of The Furtive Billionaire Heir 117. Lemon
I cannot help the incredulous laugh that falls off my lips as I blink at him, trying to get my vision clearer and clearer. My throat still hurts too much to talk, but there are a million questions swirling in my head. I feel like I just might explode if I don’t get the answers for them soon.Lemon is here. How bizarre is that? In my psyche, Lemon is associated with New Yoke, being the general life of the party, the young and genius boy who does bartending for a living and colors his hair a million times to suit his whims. He’s certainly a character, but a character who belongs in the big apple.So, what the hell is he doing here?“Dude, I need you to start from the beginning,” I tell him, trying to make heads and tails, “what are you doing here?”He pouts exaggeratedly, “aw, Jace, I thought you guys would be happy to see me here. Thought we became buddies after I saved your butt from being pummeled at my bar!”I sputter, “of course, I didn’t mean to imply otherwise, I just-“Then the
Revenge of The Furtive Billionaire Heir 118: Mafia?
“Coraline!”“Lemon!”The said individuals collide in an exuberant hug, laughing their hearts out. At one point, Lemon raises Coraline off the ground and spins her.“Oh, my god!” Coraline cackles as she is set on the ground, “I really missed you, which is strange-““Considering how we only hung out for like three days forever ago, I know!” Lemon added, finishing the sentiment, “what can I say? I was bored of New York and thought I’d try to find more luck on the west coast.”“Oh, wow, you really just left New York like that, huh,” Coraline chuckles shaking her head, “How’d you run into Jace anyway?”“Oh, I was just gallivanting around Empire city when I saw him fleeing this huge ass dude,” Lemon confides, “and so I decided that I should give an old friend a hand.”Upon hearing that, Coraline whips her head at me, concern clear on her features, “Jace?!”“Um, yeah, so apparently, Stone and his lackeys still hadn’t forgiven me for ‘getting them expelled,” I cannot help but use my fingers t
